IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Safety Instructions
Before using the Big Genny or Big Genny Emergency Power
Kit (“Big Genny EK”), read this manual
thoroughly. This manual contains information needed to achieve Big Genny product performance for your
application. Keep this manual for future reference.
Warnings, Cautions and Notes
Any operator of the inverter included in the Big Genny must read and follow all
WARNINGS, CAUTIONS
and
NOTES
,
as well as all operation instructions. Comply with
WARNINGS
(possibility of serious injury or
death),
CAUTIONS
(possibility of damage to the inverter and / or other equipment), and
NOTES
(included
to assist you in achieving the maximum performance and longest working life from this advanced-design
power supply).
Warning: Inverter Output
1. The Big Genny includes a heavy-duty inverter device that produces voltages similar to commercial
AC power.
2.
Danger of shock or electrocution: Treat the inverter’s output the same as commercial AC power.
3. Do not use the Big Genny near flammable materials or in any locations that may accumulate
flammable fumes or gases. This is an electrical device that can briefly spark when electrical
connections are made or broken.
4. Do not allow water or other liquids into contact with the inverter.
5. Do not use the Big Genny with appliances with damaged or wet cords.
Caution: Inverter Operating Environment
1.
The Big Genny’s surrounding air temperature should be between 32°F and 104°F (0°C and 40°C).
Ideally, the surrounding air temperature will be between 59°F and 77°F (15°C and 25°C).
2. Keep the inverter away from direct sunlight, if possible.
3. Keep the area surrounding the inverter clear to ensure free air circulation around the unit. Do not
place items on or over the inverter during operation. The unit will shut down if the internal temperature
gets too hot. Restart the inverter after it cools.
4.
The Big Genny’s lid must be open at least one inch to ensure air flow around the inverter.
5. Do not use the Big Genny in wet environments; the inverter outputs the same voltage as commercial
AC outlets. There is
danger of shock or electrocution
if the Big Genny is used in wet environments.
6. Do not use the Big Genny in or near flammable fumes or gases, as ignition may result in explosion or
fire.
7. In the event that the amperage or Wattage of connected devices / appliances exceeds the Big
Genny’s 100 Amp DC internal circuit breaker rating and the circuit breaker trips, reduce the number of
connected devices / appliances to resume normal operation.
